We all have addictions.

Hotdog?
Being the Internet’s only Five-a-Day Blogger, there is a certain feeling of, well, it’s hard to describe.
It’s like finding yourself in a place you never dreamed of, but if you did dream of it, you’d think it would be:
Impossible to achieve
Impossible to maintain
Crazy (but a good crazy)
Well, after writing 1,500 posts in the spontaneous, same-day format, I can’t stop myself.
In fact, some days I do need to stop myself.
Why?
Because I want to write more than one post per blog. “That would be too much for the Internet community to read”
And then it occurs to me, “What if it’s not?”
That’s today’s message. As you are nearly two weeks into your new year, “How are you doing with your impossible goal?”

Just to clarify, yesterday’s post was funny. In fact, it’s still funny.
But this is more funny:
Guess it’s not more funny, and what is “more funny” anyway. Sounds stupid.

Fog
The truth hurts. The truth can also set us free.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever!”
Can’t you just hear people saying this, or thinking it? I say it too. We all do sometimes.
In fact, I’ve said this all my life.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever.”
Until a few years ago when things began to change.
One close friend describes me as, “A Transformed man.”
Just yesterday, at jeffnoel.org
As we are into the fourth day of the new year already, wanted to remind everyone that the goal from all this writing is:
To leave a trail for a young child
To help others with their goals
To eventually raise money to find a cure
These things have the ability to help transform anyone. At the moment, it’s working slowly, but powerfully.

How Will You Know?
Did you say something?
Yes. I said something.
Weren’t you paying attention?
Huh?
Exactly.

An Olympian at age 50?
December 21, 2009. Can you believe it? Ten days until 2010 begins. A few questions we may consider asking ourselves.
Where did the time go?
Am I happy with what happened this past year?
Did I do what I said i was going to?
Did I do something every day that scared me?
Did I pray every day for my Family, Friends, and especially to all those people less fortunate?
Did I act in accordance with my loftiest thoughts?
Did I help make the world a little better place to live?
Did I strive for balance in life’s big four – Mind, Body, Spirit, Money?
Do I have a plan for 2010?

jeff noel knows. No, seriously.
I know the reason why we get old.

Yesterday, as I was adding some tags to the blog post, I typed Regret. That word came to mind because it was the
If I didn’t do it before I settled down and started a career somewhere, I knew I would probably never have the chance again.
Job, career, marriage, house, bills, family, kids, responsibilities, worries, challenges, health, cars, vacations, promotions, yada yada.
And so on October 5, 1982, with $75 in my pocket, I left Philadelphia for Washington State.
Regret is awesome. Otherwise, I would never have left.
